>>you might have to load the modules which emulate scsi on top of ide
(ide-scsi something).
edit lilo.conf add the line:
append="hdX=ide-scsi"
where X is the drive letter.
Then re-run lilo.
#/sbin/lilo
You will not be able to use the drive as a regular cdrom only a writer. Also
a great graphic front end to use the cdburner is gcombust. A search of
reshmeat.net will turn it up.
Best of luck.
